HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Acai 1000 mg by 21st Century
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: acai extract at 1,000 mg per softgel capsule. Acai is a berry from South America that's been studied for possible effects on skin, heart health, sexual function, weight, and cholesterol — though the evidence remains limited.
The softgel also holds soybean oil, gelatin, vegetable glycerin, beeswax, soy lecithin, caramel color, silica, maltodextrin, and purified water as inactive ingredients.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence on acai extract for the claims studied — aging skin, athletic performance, erectile dysfunction, high cholesterol, and obesity — is rated insufficient in our data. That means we don't have reliable clinical evidence yet to say whether it works for any of these uses.
If you're considering this product for one of those reasons, chat with your pharmacist about what the current research actually shows.
How safe is it?
Some data gaps
Acai as a whole food is generally well tolerated, but concentrated supplements like this one haven't been as thoroughly studied — we don't know a lot about high-dose effects yet. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, there isn't enough safety data on acai supplements to be certain, so caution is advised.
Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using it during pregnancy or while nursing.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
If you take antidiabetes drugs (blood sugar medications), check with your pharmacist before using this product — acai may affect how your blood glucose responds, and that's a Moderate-level concern. Run your exact medications through the checker on this page to be sure.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.
Acai extract is generally well tolerated, but it's not proven to work for any major health claim in our data. The key concern is if you take diabetes medication — you'll want to check that first.
